Sahara (Desert) Beige with Black Leather Interior

1974 Carrera Targa. This Porsche is a real factory duck tail Carrera. This Carrera is number 15, the first known U.S. Carrera Targa ever built.... (The first 14 were coupes). Rare optioned car. Factory fiberglass targa top. This car was ordered with manual windows. Numbers matching motor and transmission validated by Porsche certificate of authenticity. 100% Rust-free car purchased in Atlanta, GA. It took over five years to have the car restored. The Porsche is a RS inspired build. Less than 7,000 miles on the restoration. The engine was re-built with RS Pistons and rings, E cams, and PMO Carburetors. A stainless steel Sport Muffler and a stainless heat exchanger were installed. The original transmission was rebuilt. Brakes were rebuilt and rebuilt Koni shocks installed. The suspension was rebuilt. Original Porsche 7 X 15 inch Fuchs wheels were installed on the front and 8 X 15 inch Fuchs on the rear.

The car was disassembled and taken down to bare metal for a complete repaint in Sahara Desert Beige. The car was re-assembled using all new trim and rubber seals. The car is always stored in a heated garage and has never seen rain since its restoration. All the work listed was done by various professional, well known and respected Porsche shops.

Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.

Porsche becomes first company to rent out Vatican's Sistine Chapel

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

We wouldn't go so far as to say God is a Porsche fan, but those in charge of one of the holiest Christian spots on our little blue marble are welcoming the German automaker into one of the religion's most revered and beautiful settings - the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. In so doing, Porsche will reportedly become the first company to rent out the holy hall for a corporate function.
Now, it's not like Pope Francis has signed off on Porsche doing do donuts in a 911 underneath Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. Instead, the Vatican has rented out the home of the Papal Conclave to the Porsche Travel Club, which will host a classical music concert. The Travel Club organizes events and tours across Europe for Porsche enthusiasts, with the Vatican concert just one part of a tour of Rome.
According to Automotive News Europe, Porsche will sell 40 tickets - at 5,000 euros each ($6,379) - to the event, while the Vatican has confirmed that the Pope will not be in attendance.
